The NGWA Theis Conference’s unique format is intended to stimulate and enhance individual and collaborative research, as well as accelerate the advance of the hydrologic sciences by providing an opportunity for the exchange of information and exciting new ideas. It draws together a diverse group of scientists, engineers, professionals and others from the national and international community for several days of focused examination of current issues.

This year’s Theis Conference keynote speaker is Eric J. Barron, Ph.D., director of the National Center for Atmospheric Research. During his career, he has worked to promote the intersection of the geological sciences with the atmospheric sciences and the field of Earth system science.
